You've been waiting with bated breath to find out if Blogher will bring back the Swap Meet this year in San Francisco. Wait no longer, my friends! Now is the time to sign up for a table--only ten available, so don't delay! Who's on your list of nearest and dearest that you absolutely must see there with their lovely art ready to buy? Here's mine:
1. Wolfie and the Sneak. I met Renee Garner last year and loved her quiet savvy and clever ways. This is a woman who is wed to her art and knows how to make magic show up on the page. I would love to see those prints in person, truly, with enough time to decide on which I need for my studio walls.
2. Chookooloonks. I love the kind of artist who has no idea that her images are magic. This makes for a certain kind of simplicity and beauty that is a rare find and true treasure. Can't you see these staring back at you when you need a little visual inspiration?
3. Superhero Designs. Really it's worth it just to see Andrea crawl under the table and give those necklaces a blessing. You know that you want to have something that personal and special reminding you everyday that you are your own superhero--who wouldn't? If you've been thinking those Superhero jewels are out of your price range, be delighted this year to get your hands on the Superhero pendant, the latest installation in the Superhero series.
4. Kelly Rae Roberts. Kelly Rae is one of those artists who has just the piece you need right now to mark the value of this crossroads in your journey. Not only do her images brim with a kind of confidence and kindness that will fortify your resolve, you'll also be delighted to have such hopeful images staring back at you at your most critical moment. Come on, Kelly. We need your goodness at Blogher.
5. Shutter Sisters. If there is any photoblog community that has a wealth of images ready for your living room wall, this is it. Can you imagine a coffee table book full of images like these? Or how about a poster of this? Whatever it takes to be able to take this goodness in a suitcase home.
6. Geninne. What would you give to hold one of these lovely rocks in your hand? I can't wrench myself out of these pages, the loveliness knows no bounds. Don't miss these little birds.
What's on your list? Who do you want to see at the swapmeet? Let me know in the comments below.

Swapmeet Picks
I have no idea which of these lovelies will be at BlogHer, but I'd love to see:
Boho Girl: Denise's photos are soft, feminine, and whimsical. And she's just added some new prints to her Etsy shop, making it impossible to pick just one.
The Little Room: I'm a sucker for aprons, and Liz Elayne's handsewn ones are darling.
Jen Gray: Saturated with bright color, Jen's photos are the exact opposite of Boho Girl's. But the end result is the same: beautiful and magical.
And of course, Jen Lemen should have a table, non? To sell a certain little book and maybe some other goodies that she has hidden up her sleeve?

BlogHer Swap Meet
Here's a question:
Can one participate in the swap meet even if the conference sold out before they could get passes?
I have great work to sell - http://www.kristinemays.etsy.com

Sadly...
Hi Kristine,
Unfortunately, no. The swap meet is located within the rest of the conference venue, and so we can only accommodate those who are registered. My apologies!
